Good Office Design
3 Sep 2009
Good Office Design examines the trends and innovations at the cutting edge of office design in the UK today. Selected from British Council for Offices Award winners since 2002 and interpreting empirical analyses by Davis Langdon, the varied case studies presented demonstrate the latest thinking from the world of workplace design.
Written by the distinguised author and journalist David Littlefield, the text is sharp and authoritative, and complemented by colour photographs, floor plans, elevations and detail drawings. The chapters are organised into salient topics - the Workplace, Location, Structure, Cost and Sustainability - but along the way take account of numerous critical issues such as light levels and staff amenities. A wide-ranging end chapter, written by Jeremy Myerson and Paul Warner, knits together contemporary socio-cultural influences to imagine the future of the office.Good Office Design sheds light on current best practice in a sector where matching the needs of business with the needs of staff is increasingly important for commercial or organisational success.
